To run a standard search from the Presentations application:

1.       Enter desired text into the textbox on the upper right of the Presentations landing page;

2.       Select the Search button.

To run an Advanced Search from the Presentations tab:

1.      Select Advanced search link from upper right, underneath the Search textbox;

2.      Select the desired checkboxes to filter your search;

(When searching for text putting the text in quotes will ensure that only results contains that EXACT search string are returned.  For example, If you want to search for a presentation title that has Training for Sales Reps then put that in quotes "Training for Sales Reps"  If you do not use the quotes you will get every presentation with Training, for, sales and Reps.)
